"Never say no to a book. Even with infants and toddlers, make frequent visits to book stores and libraries", heißt es im Artikel "The Importance of Being Early: A Case for Preschool Enrichment" der National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC). Und weiter: "As soon as they're able, let children (again within limits) choose their own material. There's plenty available for the young reader. Water-proof books for babies in the bath; picture books; hands-on activity books, and beautifully illustrated stories. Reading to young children daily will help build in a love of books and a sense for the flow, rhythm, and beauty of printed language."
